But I understand they are a drug addict who isn't very aware of things.

I have come across a condo association that is VERY rundown (drugs and homeless) and not doing well at all, interestingly it is surrounded by multiple apartment complexes geared towards students.

If there is drugs related activity, I would send all the units a notice that the cops are vigilant and on a certain day there will random checks, that will chase half of the peddlers out.2.

@Matthew Paul Lots of drugs. time is irrelevant at some point

Next week got a notification on door about having drug activity in hallway of billding.

If, after inspection, you decide you don't think the tenants are a good fit (hoarders, signs of drug use, etc.) you an always put in the contract that the property is to be delivered vacant.

There was a small fire in the downstairs den area so I'm thinking that it might have been a drug lab related fire because it is selling for so cheap.

If they refuse, evict them and get them out.You may also considering screening all your current occupants to clean out any drug dealers, sex offenders, etc.

Only thing that could make something 'too far' is if it is a total pain to get to/fly to if you need to go out to it for some reason.I manage my out-of-state properties with property managers, and I buy turnkey to alleviate a lot of risks of rehabbing and all that jazz.You may need to find a market and properties before you find the property manager.
